Review – Between the Lines
Geordie Little’s debut Fringe show ‘Between the Lines’ is a forum for you to sit, listen and watch in awe as this one guy gets layers of sound out of one instrument.

Review – Iridium
In the modern digital age, Jazz kinda gets a bad rap sometimes. Perhaps it’s too intrinsically linked with the time and place of its genesis and rise to prevalence, so people don’t always have an open mind. But is that how you want to think?

Steve Hughes’ “Big Issues” deals with precisely that – the big issues facing our society.
Review – EastEnd Cabaret: Notoriously Kinky
EastEnd Cabaret were one of our favourite acts last year and with good bloody reason too.
